DSL EmbeddedForum: DSL Embedded Topic: DSL Embedded started by: xsauronx Posted by xsauronx on Jan. 20 2008,15:41
Ive poked around the wiki and FAQs and dont see this addressed (perhaps I overlooked it?)I have DSL on a flash drive so i can run it with qemu inside windows (im aware of how to boot from it, but am not interested in it) can i *get* network working with this or is that not possible with qemu? I have set up persistant storage on my flash drive, and Im familiar enough with linux to set up networking within the emulated OS, but is it something qemu supports or am I out of luck? I had hoped to be able to work within DSL embedded where i wanted to take it for a small handful of things, thanks Posted by curaga on Jan. 20 2008,16:19
Qemu's network layer sometimes works, sometimes it doesn't. To the guest (DSL) it looks like an ethernet card and a dhcp server, it's either qemu or the host OS that has trouble when networking doesn't work.
Posted by xsauronx on Jan. 20 2008,18:06
well i poked around the qemu site briefly and my dsl-e is seeing the qemu-provided realtek interface ill look a bit more this afternoon and see if i can find a way to make it work reliably. otherwise it really isnt worth much to me, given the reason id like to have it. thanks Posted by roberts on Jan. 20 2008,18:14
Normally network access via Qemu is trivial.DSL running in qemu does the usual request for an IP. Qemu respnds with 10.0.2.15 and the routing is automatically passed through your host (Windows) network. Of course your Windows network must be functional. Qemu does provide advanced network access, but that becomes a Qemu question/setup. |

10 of us from, Honolulu, anchorage, Denver, Montana, and Washington got together again for crabbing. We had a great time. the house and cabin has more than enough room for us. We caught lots of crab. The water problem from last year has been fixed. Kathy (the owner) is a very kind and gracious person. She goes out of her way to make sure we have a great stay every time we stay there. we plan on going back again in October. I would recommend this vacation home to anyone and everyone. We moored my 22 foot Grady White boat at the dock right in front of the house, that makes for easy access to Sequim bay for fishing , crabbing and boating. we are so happy we found this place, and plan to use it a lot. Thanks Roger
Jerry Jeanne Watson, Swan Valley Montana

Looping full-orchesteral remake of the OOT theme. Review.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Man thats lush mate! I love Legend of Zelda. Its my favourite game of all time! Man what a great sound. Truly Fantastic
Thanks for the review XD
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This is an awesome remake! This was never really one of my favorite tracks from the game but your version makes it sound a hell a lot better. Keep on making excellent music man. I command you..... uh, no i don't.
Try listning to my other rexixes of zelda. I personally think those are better but for some reason everyone loves this one :\
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Yay, just what i need!
I need this for a movie, but im new so do i have to ask before i use it?
Or can i use it whenever i want?
Go ahead, thats what the audio portal is for. When you download the track, the file will have a number before the .mp3. When you submit your flash, you will be prompted for that number, just paste that in and everythings cool.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
wow this is one of the best remixes i have ever heard! You should try remixing Gerudo Valley ;)
~Me =P
Good idea :o
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Made me wanna go play the game again.
I went down into my basement and found my 64 just 2 play OOT because I heard this.
I love inspiring people :D

Choosing a Pediatrician Who Shares Your Green Values
Choosing a pediatrician can be a very difficult task if you don't know what you're doing. When looking for the right pediatrician for your children, it's important to remember that this is someone you will be partnering with to ensure that your children grow up healthy. This needs to be someone who you trust, and someone who respects your beliefs (whether or not he or she agrees with them.)
So often I hear of people who are unhappy with their child's pediatrician. In fact, I was one of those people. If the pediatrician you choose is not to your liking, then it's important to be proactive and find someone who is right for you.
I switched pediatric offices when my youngest was 6 months old and my oldest was 2 1/2. It wasn't one particular thing that made me switch; it was a number of things that were building upon each other. It was the best thing I ever did.
If you are looking for a physician who will take a more natural approach to your child's health, then my first recommendation is to visit the website for the American Association of Naturopathic Doctors. The website has a physician finder section allowing you to search by specialty, location, or a doctor's name. Among those who practice pediatrics, there are more than 200 listed, with offices in 28 states and the District of Columbia.
Since there may not be a naturopathic pediatrician in close proximity to where you live, it's important to look for a pediatrician who is close (enough) by and shares your values.
When interviewing physicians, you should have a list of questions prepared. If you are taking a more "natural" approach to parenting, here are some of the questions I recommend:
1. What is your approach to vaccination? If parents choose not to vaccinate their children, how do you handle that? If you are choosing to vaccinate your children, then ask the doctor if he or she is open to spreading out vaccines so your child is not receiving as many vaccines at once—this way, if there is a negative reaction, you can determine which vaccine caused it.
2. Do you have separate waiting areas for sick and well visits?
3. Do you have same-day appointments for sick children?
4. What is your approach to introducing foods? How long do you believe babies should be breastfed?
5. What is your experience with vitamins, homeopathic medicines, herbs, and other non-Western approaches?
6. Do you consider yourself accepting of parents who choose a more natural approach to parenting?
In addition, if your chosen pediatrician is a sole-practitioner, you will want to find out who the doctor is that covers for him. You may even want to meet that person, just in case your child is ever sick while your own pediatrician is away, and you will want to make sure this person is not overly quick to medicate.
Also, if your doctor is a member of a group practice, you will also want to meet the other members of the practice to find out if their philosophies are in line with yours.
The most important thing you can do when choosing a pediatrician is to listen to your gut feeling. If something doesn't feel right, then it probably isn't. Don't ignore your instincts. They are usually right. And, if you find a pediatrician is not right for your family, don't be afraid to switch doctors. In the end, you'll be glad you did.

Test ID: TGAB
Thyroglobulin Antibody, Serum
Method Description Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
The Access Thyroglobulin Antibody II assay (TgAb) is a sequential 2-step immunoenzymatic (sandwich) assay. A sample is added to a reaction vessel with paramagnetic particles coated with the thyroglobulin protein. The serum TgAb binds to the thyroglobulin. After incubation in a reaction vessel, materials bound to the solid phase are held in place by a magnetic field, while unbound materials are washed away. The thyroglobulin-alkaline phosphatase conjugate is added and binds to the TgAb. After the second incubation, materials bound to the solid phase are held in place by a magnetic field, while unbound materials are washed away. Then, the chemiluminescent substrate, Lumi-Phos 530 is added to the reaction vessel and light generated by the reaction is measured with a luminometer. The light production is directly proportional to the concentration of thyroglobulin antibody in the sample.(Instruction manual: Thyroglobulin Antibody II Assay, Beckman Coulter, Inc., Fullerton, CA 2011)
PDF Report Indicates whether the report includes an additional document with charts, images or other enriched information
Day(s) and Time(s) Test Performed Outlines the days and times the test is performed. This field reflects the day and time the sample must be in the testing laboratory to begin the testing process and includes any specimen preparation and processing time required before the test is performed. Some tests are listed as continuously performed, which means assays are performed several times during the day.
Monday through Friday 6 a.m.-12 a.m.
Saturday 6 a.m.-6 p.m.

Austria - Obertauern
From: 2015.11.25 To: 2015.12.08
Be among the first to stick out your tongue and lick up the first flakes of the season during Obertauern's winter sport season opening party. International Ski Countdown is a rocking party that draws snow lovers to one of Austria's most popular Alpine resorts, even if it is a little premature for experiencing perfect powder. In addition to the newly manicured runs, expect fireworks, a snow bar, and a dance party or two. It's the first of many après skiing and music adventures the resort has to offer, and event sets the tone for the season.

He, partner Camila and son Levi are all pictured on the cover of OK! magazine, on newsstands Thursday, July 24, with which he also has an interview recalling back the day when the baby was born.
The rumors are true that Matthew McConaughey sells the first pictures of his son to OK! magazine though the amount of money he receives from the deal remains undisclosed. Confirming the talk of the town, the official website of the publication has on Wednesday, July 23 made public the first ever pic of the actor alongside his model partner Camila Alves and their boy Levi Alves McConaughey.
"INTRODUCING NEWBORN LEVI, DADDY'S LITTLE BOY," so read the headline that accompanies the picture of the family on the cover of the new issue of OK! "I want my son to be a little cooler than me". The cover sees McConaughey embracing Camila's shoulder as she leans her head on his shoulder, while holding son Levi in her hand.
In addition to the cover shoot, McConaughey also has an exclusive interview with OK! sharing his experience of becoming a father for the very first time. "Becoming a dad is something I've dreamed of doing since I was 10," so he admitted. "Becoming a father felt very, very natural."
Recalling back to the day when Camila gave birth to Levi on July 7, the hunk revealed "We found a great rhythm. Contractions started kicking in. I sat there with her, right between her legs. We got tribal on it, we danced to it! I was DJ-ing this Brazilian music." He continued saying, "We were jamming! She was sweating. No painkiller, let's go. She just clicked into that gear that only a woman has at a time like this. We'd been up for 40-something hours, and we went from dead tired to a really steadfast, 'Let's handle this ... let's stay in the rhythm. Don't let the contraction be more than you.'"
McConaughey's further interview with OK! during which he also revealed how he helped cutting his son's umbilical cord and holding him for the first 15 minutes during the delivery while doctors worked on Camila can be read on the new issue of OK! which hits the newsstands Thursday, July 24.

If it weren't for stereotypes, we'd say diehard gamers unplugged for a week of romancing and lovemaking to celebrate Valentine's Day last month, which would explain why NPD Group noted such a sharp decline in videogame sales in February. We don't condone stereotypes, but let's get real, February was just a crummy month for game sales and it had nothing to do with there being a day for lovers.
That wouldn't explain a 20 percent drop in sales from $1.33 billion in February 2011 to $1.06 billion a year later. Software was the worst offender, dropping 24 percent to $485.7 million, while non-PC hardware sales also took a double-digit hit, declining 18 percent to $381.4 million, according to NPD Group's data. Sales of accessories also fell into a funk, dropping 16 percent to $215.2 million compared to one year prior.
While NPD Group didn't say why sales fell so sharply, we can surmise it's not from a lack of awesome titles. The top 10 list of 10 games for February 2012 looks like this:
In somewhat releated news, Skyrim, which appears at No. 8 on NPD Group's list of top selling games, was named the Game of the Year at the 2012 Game Developers Choice Awards earlier this week.

Core strength is vital for posture
Much of our daily movement relies on the body's core muscles. From lifting our legs to walk, to hoisting a large purse or briefcase, we utilize core muscles throughout the day.
Just as the brain is the center of all neurological function, the body's core, which consists of muscles in the abdomen, hips and lower back, is the generator that facilitates physical mobility. It is the body's center of gravity.

Historical Traveler Reviews Barcelo Dominican Beach Punta Cana
Would Never Go Again...
The hotel is very clean and the grounds are beautiful. The service was poor - it was extremely difficult finding someone to help you with anything -very few people spoke ANY English. There was no direction around the hotel - i.e. schedule of events, shows, theme dinners etc. About 80% the guests were French - and unfortunately, they were very rude! The food was adequate - both my husband and myself (and another couple who booked the same package we did) got sick. They tell you to not drink the water - we didn't and we were very careful about not having ice etc yet we still got sick. Friends of ours stayed at The Iberostar hotel the same time we were there and they loved it! Skip the H-10 or Ocean Bavaro (name changed while we were there) and shoot for the Iberostar!!
H-10 is a great resort!
My boyfriend and I just returned from one week at the H-10 (march 15-22) and we absolutely loved it. I read some of the reviews before we left and I was a little skeptical because it was only rated a 3star resort. I have stayed at many resorts in the Caribbean and this resort was definitely above average and deserves more than 3 stars. The rooms were basic, but they were spotless and everything worked just fine (shower, AC, TV etc). The beach was beautiful and the staff was great at cleaning it up each morning (compared to other resorts near by this beach was the cleanest by far!). Although the resort was fully booked the beach was well spread out and never felt overcrowded. It's best to get up early to save some beach chairs for the day because they get taken pretty early in the morning. The food was average. We knew it wasn't going to be amazing but there is a huge variety so we always found something we liked. There are 4 restaurants to make reservations at so once again lots of variety if you don't like the buffet. The pools are quiet and for the most part pretty clean. The big pool was a little dirty by the end of the day but nothing to complain about. The staff is friendly and works hard to keep everyone entertained all day and night long. There are food buffets and bars near every pool and at 2 different spots on the beach so you never have to go too far to find what you need. I highly recommend this resort as it exceeded all my expectations (and this comes from someone who goes down south to all inclusive resorts almost every year!).
H10 exceeded our expectations! March 8, 2003
Although I must admit I was apprehensive about staying at a less than luxury resort and almost changed the location prior to departure, this resort TOTALLY exceeded my expectations (and I consider myself to be somewhat picky). The H10 was absolutely beautiful, food and drinks were fantastic, and the service and entertainment was great. Our room was immaculate and the bathroom was huge. We stayed on Block 3 which was centrally located and very quiet. I would definitely return here without a doubt!!
Just not the right hotel !
Traveled to Punta Cana week of Feb 25th to March 4th 2003..This was a trip with a buddy of mine a get away for some sun and golf and that was about the best of this vacation .In fact the weather was incredible picture perfect everyday 86' with cool tropical breeze and nights about 70' .The hotel itself leaves a lot to be desired and I lay blame on the travel agent for not placing us in a hotel with a few Americans ,this place is 95% Europeans (French,Italian,German). I thought the food (buffet) sucked . Be careful as well not to use the ice cubes in your drinks or you will be sick. And the big kicker was the rooms ..shower didn't work well, toilet was always broken you call front desk and they tell you they will have someone come to your room to fix problem and you might get lucky if they showed up 2 days later ! NIGHTMARE . Best part of trip was going to a place outside of hotel in town called "La Punta" if you ever wanted to know what it feels like to be a rock star and have tons of women all over your *** this place Rocks ! Smokin hot babes !!!! all locals and let me tell you they love Americans ! Overall I'd go back to punta but never to this particular resort ,but I guess you live and learn .
Plenty of other places. Don't come here
Though we loved our stay, our complaints were practically ignored by the management. The hotel's location is great, the service was great, the night shows - excellent, food was great too. But out of 6 days we spent there (it was our honeymoon), we spent 5 begging for the shower to be fixed (we had no hot water) or to be transferred to another room. On the 5th night we were finally given another room. Besides, upon arrival we were told that we were getting 2 double beds, though we specifically asked for 1 king sized bed. This was ignored as well. And when we told the receptionist this was our honeymoon, he smiled in disbelief and told us we could tell the PR person (who was never there), and maybe get something special. On the 4th day, our travel agency (apple vacations) representative spoke to a manager about the problems. He promised to solve the problem and make it up to us. He didn't solve the problem, and we were not compensated in any way. Bottom line: there are plenty of other hotels in the area. Just pick another one.
Lots of Fun
My aunt and I stayed at the H-10 Bavaro for a long weekend "just the girls" get-away. It rained some of the time we were there, but you can't blame the resort for the weather! And even when it was raining, there was plenty to do and the staff really tried to get the guests up and participating in all their activities. Once the sun came out, the place was amazing. Aerobics in the waves on the beach, beach volleyball and soccer, a swim-up bar in the middle of the pool, you name it, they had it. The staff there is super friendly ad fun, although maybe it helps that I speak spanish. There are lots of Europeans at the resort--French, Italian, German--so while most of the staff speaks a few languages, their English was not amazing (you could definelty communicate with them in Engligh though). The food, which we were expecting to be only mediocre, was AMAZING, in both the main dining hall and the Mexican and Italian restaurants. My aunt and I arrived on Friday afternoon and left Monday afternoon, and we had fun for the short trip. I can see, though, how someone might get a little bored if they were going for a longer trip, but i think that comes with any all-inclusive complex type resort
Great vacation
I was extremely anxious about our trip after reading all of the negative comments on this site, and with only two reader reviews posted for this resort, I was wondering why no one else chose it. I should not have worried. We arrived in PC right on time, went through the airport procedure and got a taxi to our hotel, without speaking a word of spanish (other than si and gracias of course). We had no problem checking in and got to our room within 15 minutes of arrival. We were a little disoriented upon arrival because the information brochure was in Spanish only, they had no english translation. We did not know what we were supposed to do about meals, did not know how to make reservations, etc. We went back to lobby and the guest relations person spoke perfect English. She explained the restaurant choices and gave us other basic information as needed throughout our stay. We ate at the buffet and pool snack bar for all but one dinner. We had reservations at the "Italian" restaurant on our second night. The food there turned out to be all grilled, chicken, pork, steak, sausage, with red beans and rice and a salad bar. Not our idea of italian, but delicious. The main buffet had everything! We never waited in line, only complaint at all was flies, but how can this be avoided completely in open air dining? Bars were quick to serve drinks, which had plenty of alcohol in them!!! We, as americans, were definitely in the minority, we met 3 other couples who were from US. We liked that aspect of this hotel, we did not have to talk to people unless we wanted to, since most spoke Spanish, French or German. The grounds were breathtaking, the pools were huge and immaculately clean. We never had a problem getting two chairs and towels on the beach *also beautiful" or the pool. Our room although not fancy, was clean and the shower and airconditioning worked great. Our ceiling did leak a bit on the night it rained (it was pouring outside, only a slight drip in one area), but we
of our building, but we could not smell it inside our room or on our balcony, Which overlooked a lovely lagoon with pink flamingos! We would recommend this resort without reservation, although I must add that we are not the type to find fault and tend to overlook some things, i.e. flies, leak and smell, that might really bother someone else.
The Time of Our Life
Me and My family went to H10 last summer and we had the time of our life. It was a dream. There was always something to do at all times and for every one in the family. We were 29 adults and 9 kids, and this next summer we are going to be more than 50. We just fell in love with H10. I Still remember all the friends I made especially "La Muchachona". I'm so there again and again and again.
Our very first trip to Punta Cana was February 2002. We weren't sure what to expect, but ended up having an absolutely incredible time! The H10 Bavaro Resort is perfect! Everything you need and more. We loved the entertainment/activities staff. They were a blast! We will definitely be returning to the H10 Bavaro Resort!
Wonderful facilities, great service, right on thebeach
We will be returning to the H-10 Bavaro Resort in Punta Cana
for the third time in March 2002. Located right on the beach - smaller
hotel, well maintained, great service, EXCELLENT VARIETY OF FOOD, clean
rooms. We strongly recommend this resort and would give it a 4 star.

"Sometimes to create, one must first destroy."
Returning to explore the extensive mythology and unresolved mysteries in the Aliens universe, Ridley Scott's 2012 sci-fi thriller Prometheus introduced fans to the ancient race known as the Engineers. Designed for the film by award-winning creature creator Neville Page, these mysterious beings feature strong influences of classic Greek and Roman sculpture combined with HR Giger's genre-defining aesthetic.
Discovered by archaeologists Elizabeth Shaw and Charles Holloway, the aptly named 'Engineers' are masters of genetic engineering. Equipped with the most advanced technology, their primary mission is to seed planets with various species – perhaps even once those of the human race.
"God-like, classical, powerful, with skin like that of stone"
- Neville Page on Ridley Scott's description of the Engineer
Presented in 1:5 scale at roughly 22 inches tall, humanity's fascinating forerunner comes to life with the Engineer Statue. As depicted on the surface of LV-223, the Engineer dons the form-fitting organ laced pressure suit, capable of supplying the life-giving fluids needed during long periods of hibernation.
Individually crafted and hand-finished, Sideshow's artisans have painstakingly captured every detail of the last known Engineer.
Sideshow Exclusive Edition
The Exclusive Engineer Statue will include an additional unique display accessory (shown below), the fossilized 'Space Jockey' flight suit helmet with base, our tribute to the Engineer as first depicted in the 1979 film Alien.
Don't miss this breath-taking piece of film history for your sci-fi collection. The regular and Exclusive versions of the Engineer Statue are available now.

Development of a protein-free fed-batch process for NS0 cells: studies on regulation of proliferation
Abstract (Summary)
The overall objective of this study was to investigate how NS0 cell proliferation is regulated in protein-free media. The hypothesis was that during the adaptation to growth factor-free media, animal cell lines start to produce their own autocrine growth factors to support proliferation, and after some time in a culture the effects of these factors are lost which results in cessation of proliferation. A chemically defined, protein-free and animal component-free medium was developed for the NS0 cells. This medium was comprised of a basal hybridoma medium to which phosphatidyl¬choline, cholesterol, ?-cyclodextrin, ferric citrate and amino acids were added. A fed-batch process was then developed in this medium. The feed profile was optimised in a step-wise manner with a final feed solution containing glucose, glutamine, lipids, amino acids, vitamins, sodium selenite and ethanolamine. Specifically, supplementation with lipids (cholesterol) had a drastic effect on cell growth. Calcium, magnesium and potassium were not depleted during culture and a feed containing also iron, lithium, manganese, phosphorous and zinc did not significantly enhance the cell yield further. More than 8 x 106 viable cells mL-1 and 600 mg antibody L-1 was obtained in the final fed-batch. This corresponded to a 4.3-fold increase in viable cell yield and an 11.4-fold increase in product yield compared to bioreactor batch culture when the dilution of the fed-batch culture was also accounted for. The presence of autocrine growth factors in NS0 cell cultures was initially investigated by studying the effects of conditioned medium (CM). Concentrated CM had a significant positive effect on cell growth and part of this effect could be attributed to factor(s) eluting from a gel-filtration column at 20-25 kDa. In the search for cell-derived factors affecting cell growth the following proteins were identified as released/secreted by the NS0 cells; cyclophilin A, cyclophilin B, cystatin C, D-dopachrome tautomerase, IL-25, isopentenyl-diphosphate delta-isomerise, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), ?2-microglobulin, niemann pick type C2, secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI), thioredoxin-1, TNF-?, tumour protein translationally controlled-1 and ubiquitin. Zymogram electrophoresis further identified aspartic acid, papain-like cysteine (including cathepsin L) and serine protease activity in the CM. Pro/cathepsin L, CypB, EGF, IFN-?/?/?, IGF-I/II, leukaemia inhibitory factor, IL-6, IL-11, IL-25, MIF, oncostatin M, TGF-? and TNF-? were excluded as involved in autocrine regulation of NS0 cell proliferation. The serine protease activity was suggested to affect the cells negatively and since the serine protease inhibitor SLPI is also present in NS0 CM, a balance in serine protease activity may be crucial for optimal cell growth. Further, the receptor gp130, known to be associated with myeloma cell growth, was shown to be essential for NS0 cell proliferation as demonstrated by siRNA gene silencing. The results suggested that autocrine regulation of proliferation in NS0 cell cultures involves the receptor subunit gp130.

COLUMBIA — Seniors Christine Flores and BreAnna Brock seemed to score at will in the second half of Saturday's 92-62 win against visiting Wright State.
At one point in the second half, the two combined to score 21 straight points for the Missouri women's basketball team. Flores ended the game with 26 points, 22 of those coming in the second half. Brock scored 18, with 12 in the second half.
But Flores and Brock have not always been teammates. In high school, they were the exact opposite.
Both from San Antonio, the two were high school rivals. Flores went to Winston Churchill High School and Brock went to Wagner High School. Brock described the schools as two of the top-three girls basketball schools in the area.
Outside of the rivalry games, they didn't know each other at all.
"We didn't even know each other signed here for a while," Brock said.
They were paired up as roommates their freshman year.
"We got to know each other pretty well," said Flores, and they still get along well.
Now they are the two leading scorers on a young Missouri team and along with guard Bailey Gee make up the team's three seniors.
"What the three seniors bring night in and night out is their understanding of where the program was, and what our vision is of where we're trying to get to and exactly what that takes," Missouri coach Robin Pingeton said. "They're hungry, they want to be successful."
They showed it in the second half of Saturday's win.
Brock banked in layups with her right and left hands. Flores seemed to be able to score from anywhere, making layups, jump shots and 3-pointers.
Pingeton said that Flores has been putting in extra time in the gym working on her shooting. The extra work was evident with Flores scoring three of Missouri's 13 3-pointers.
"I think she's a young lady that's got very high expectations for herself," Pingeton said about Flores. "I think she knew at halftime that she could be doing more than what she was doing."
The play that seemed to put the game out of reach for Wright State came on a Missouri fast break when Flores caught a pass past half court and sent a hard bounce pass in to a running Brock, who finished with a layup in stride.
Missouri is now 5-0 for the first time since the 1997-98 season. The Tigers face Northwestern next Saturday in the Big 12/Big 10 challenge.
Pingeton, who is in her second season season at Missouri, said she is pleased with how the seniors have bought into her approach.
"They're the ones that had to drop down their guard and jump on the train with both feet, and they certainly have done that from day one," Pingeton said.
Flores and Brock will continue to lead Missouri as they put their old rivalry further into the past. Their high schools actually are no longer in the same conference.
"Technically its not even there anymore," Flores said.

Summary: Chapter 11 FLUID MODEL OF AN INTERNET ROUTER UNDER THE MIMD CONTROL SCHEME Urtzi Ayesta LAAS-CNRS, Toulouse, France email@example.com Alexei B. Piunovskiy Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK email@example.com Y. Zhang Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, UK firstname.lastname@example.com Abstract We study the interaction between an MIMD (Multiplicative Increase Multiplica- tive Decrease) congestion control algorithm and a Drop Tail buffer. We consider the problem in the framework of deterministic hybrid models. We first show that the hybrid model of the interaction between the MIMD congestion control and bottleneck router always converges to a cyclic behavior that can be of only two different types. Second, we characterize the minimum buffer size required such that the bottleneck link is fully utilized. In particular, our analysis indicates that an MIMD algorithm requires smaller buffer sizes than AIMD in order to fully

The current wave of effort to curb childhood physical inactivity has begun to influence teacher education programs. Data appear to suggest that training programs for physical education teachers are beginning to evolve from a traditionally sport- and skill-centered model to a more comprehensive physical activity– and health-centered model. However, education programs for physical education teachers are facing a dramatic decrease in the number of kinesiology doctoral programs offering training to future teacher educators, in the number of doctoral students receiving this training, and in the number of professors (including part-time) offering the training. Additional data suggest a shortage of educators in higher education institutions equipped to train future physical education teachers. With unfilled positions, these teacher education programs are subject to assuming a marginal status in higher education and even to being eliminated.
Professional development—including credit and noncredit courses, classroom and online venues, workshops, seminars, teleconferences, and webinars—improves classroom instruction and student achievement, and data suggest a strong link among professional development, teacher learning and practice, and student achievement. The most impactful statement of government policy on the preparation and professional development of teachers was the 2002 reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Although Title I of the act places highly qualified teachers in the classroom, Title II addresses the same goal by funding professional development for teachers. According to the No Child Left Behind Act, professional development should be offered to improve teachers' knowledge of the subject matter they teach, strengthen their classroom management skills, advance their understanding and implementation of effective teaching strategies, and build their capabilities to address disparities in education. This professional development should be extended to include physical education instructors as well.
Ensuring Equity in Access to Physical Activity and Physical Education
Recommendation 6: Federal, state, district, and local education administrators should ensure that programs and policies at all levels address existing disparities in physical activity and that all students at all schools have equal access to appropriate facilities and opportunities for physical activity and quality physical education.
All children should engage in physical education and meet the recommendation of at least 60 minutes per day of vigorous- or moderate-intensity physical activity regardless of their region, school attended, grade level, or

- Abstract:
- In this dissertation I provide a detailed analysis of the role played by the Tachikawa-ryu in the development of Japanese esoteric Buddhist doctrine during the medieval period (900-1200). In doing so, I seek to challenge currently held, inaccurate views of the role played by this tradition in the history of Japanese esoteric Buddhism and Japanese religion more generally. The Tachikawa-ryu, which has yet to receive sustained attention in English-language scholarship, began in the twelfth century and later came to be denounced as heretical by mainstream Buddhist institutions. The project will be divided into four sections: three of these will each focus on a different chronological stage in the development of the Tachikawa-ryu, while the introduction will address the portrayal of this tradition in twentieth-century scholarship.

Our presidential employment office By: David E. Lewis June 8, 2010 01:25 PM EDT
What is most surprising about the continuing brouhaha over the White House promising Pennsylvania Rep. Joe Sestak and Colorado's Andrew Romanoff an appointment for dropping out of a Democratic primary is not that the administration dangled the position. It is that anyone in Washington finds it surprising. Presidents have been exchanging appointed jobs for political favors since the job was invented. The practice dates back to the American colonies and has been basic to the presidential personnel process throughout the office's history. In fact, all federal jobs were given in exchange for electoral support until the 1880s — when Congress passed civil service reform. Before that, aspiring job seekers had to give time and money to the party to have a chance at a job. Jobs were bartered by party factions in exchange for supporting each other's candidates. Even after civil service reform, large numbers of jobs were set aside by Congress and the president to be unashamedly used in political exchange. Presidents like Franklin D. Roosevelt used these jobs to accomplish a number of political goals — including intervening in their parties' primaries. Today, as before, government appointments are used as a form of political currency. The shrewd distribution of these jobs can build political support for the president, hold party factions together ("Team of Rivals," anyone?), or cajole or threaten other politicians into doing what the president wants. Sure, there are fewer jobs to be given out now than at the height of the spoils system in 1880, when several hundred thousand federal jobs were filled by the political parties. But there are still more than 4,000 — twice as many as in 1960. A significant portion of these jobs that presidents can now give out are used as a reward or inducement. "Men ain't in politics for nothing." George Washington Plunkitt, of New York's Tammany Hall, famously explained, "They want to get something out of it."
People rarely give large sums of money, volunteer their time or support or drop out of a Senate primary to help a vulnerable incumbent without an expectation of getting something in return. Apparently, people rarely get out of politics for nothing either. Presidents, through the centuries, have given and withheld jobs as a way of getting what they want. The more valued the service to the president, the more prestigious the reward. John Quincy Adams, for example, was assumed to have named Henry Clay as secretary of state in exchange for his support in the contested 1824 election. When Earl Warren supported Dwight D. Eisenhower's bid for the Republican nomination in 1952, the California governor paved the way for his eventual appointment to the Supreme Court. An administration job can also significantly increase an appointee's earning potential on leaving government. Firms see the expertise and access that appointees gain as invaluable. Though they do come up with a value. But even as the practice of giving out appointed jobs as a reward continues, it is less publicly acceptable. This is why the White House has been so squeamish about engaging on this issue. After all, this White House ran as the force of change. It is now explaining that it has done only what previous presidents did. Should something be done to curb Sestak-type offers? My research reveals that cutting the number of appointees would be a good place to start. Reducing the number of jobs given out increases their value. So it makes them less likely to be given as a political reward or favor — and performance improves. At a minimum, however, we should all be more realistic about how appointed jobs have long been filled in Washington — and still are. David E. Lewis, a political science professor at Vanderbilt University, is the author of "The Politics of Presidential Appointments."
